Transceiver52M: Disable filler table retransmissions by default

Burst selection at a particular time works in the following order
of priority.

1. Slot is disabled with channel combination set to NONE (default)
1. Burst exists in priority queue for the current time.
2. Filler table entry is used

This patch sets default behaviour to force all filler table entries
to zero and disallows filler table changes. This effectively means
that only bursts received from upper layers will be transmitted and
nothing will be automatically transmitted in the absence or delay
of incoming burts at a particular time.

New Command line option "Enable C0 filler table" allows reverting
to previous idle burst generation and retransmission behaviour on
TRX0. Retransmission cannot be enabled on non-C0 channels.
